United and City show interest in young Madrid star

Young Real Madrid starlet Mohamed Aiman is attracting the interest of clubs including Manchester United and Manchester City thanks to his performances with Madrid’s Cadete B youth side.

Aiman, 15, affectionately known as ‘Moha’, was one of the stars of the Nike Cup held in Elche last week and both Premier League clubs had scouts in attendance, according to AS.

Both United and City enquired about the midfielder on the back of his performances, as did Aston Villa, who also had scouts attending the tournament.

Moha helped Madrid win the competition, beating Barcelona in the semi-finals and Sevilla in the final, and he is one of the stars of the Madrid youth set-up.

He has already represented Spain at under-16 level but is of Moroccan origin and the African country has already contacted him about representing them.

The report says Madrid will meet with the player over the summer to ensure he continues in the Spanish capital. He was one of the star players for Pedro Sanchez’s side this season and Madrid want to continue his rapid development.
